When the FCC was handed over control of the Internet within the United States, the charter for the FCC was never re-written. How can a regulatory body whose sole duty is the selling, monitoring and regulation of broadcast airwaves have control over something that is NOT broadcast without re-writing their charter? What do these regulations mean? How are common content creators going to deal with sudden changes that bring them under the same axe as broadcast television and radio? Could it soon be the fact that all content creators and associated platforms will be made to get an FCC License? Will the same rules soon apply to general website owners?

Join the Dudes n Beer podcast as we discuss these topics and more with Richard Adams, founder and CEO of Breach.tv.

  1. Fantastic blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers? I’m hoping to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely confused .. Any ideas? Kudos!
